    Christmas trees should be eaten for health benefits

    Christmas trees should be eaten for health benefits rather than thrown away, say chefs

    Brits should stop binning their Christmas trees at the end of the festive season, chefs say, as you can "pretty much eat the whole thing" - including making it into cookies, or as a gin infusion

      Spot-on, sir.
      If that 'stuff' described in the "news" article catches on, then the tree farms will have to use equipment, chemicals, INSPECTIONS, etc for "food grade stuffs".

        Remember Euell Gibbons? He used to do commercials and was known for eating trees, weeds and such.

          Yep, I remember, "... tastes like wild hickory nuts...", well.

            Let them eat their trees and bugs in Europe, I'll stick to venison and beef!! My son feeds their Christmas trees to their 4 full grown goats. He said they love 'em pick them clean in a day. He then chops it up and throws it in his outdoor wood fired boiler for heat. The pine trees burn up real good and he says, Smell that Greta!

              She's too ugly for me to get close enough to smell her.

                      Might be the best she can ever hope for?
